具体实施方式
为使本领域技术人员更好地理解本公开实施例的技术方案,下面结合附图和具体实施方式对本公开实施例作进一步详细描述。
以下将参照附图更详细地描述本公开实施例。在各个附图中,相同的元件采用类似的附图标记来表示。为了清楚起见,附图中的各个部分没有按比例绘制。此外,在图中可能未示出某些公知的部分。
在下文中描述了本公开实施例的许多特定的细节,例如部件的结构、材料、尺寸、处理工艺和技术,以便更清楚地理解本公开实施例。但正如本领域的技术人员能够理解的那样,可以不按照这些特定的细节来实现本公开实施例。
如图1所示,本公开实施例提供了一种阵列基板,具有显示区1和围设在显示区1***的周边区2。
在显示区1中设置有多个呈阵列排布的子像素11,每行子像素11连接一条栅线Gate,每列子像素11连接一条数据线Data。其中,如图1所示,多个子像素11可以包括三种不同颜色的子像素11;例如包括红色子像素R、绿色子像素G、蓝色子像素B;在此需要说明的,在本公开实施例中子像素11的颜色可以是根据每个子像素11中的发光器件的颜色而定的;例如:子像素11中的发光器件所发出的光为红光,此时则将该子像素11称之为红色子像素R;当然,若显示基板中的各个发光器件的发光颜色均相同,例如各个发光器件所发出的光均为白光,此时,则根据应用该显示基板的显示面板中,与该显示基板相对设置的彩膜基板中彩膜的颜色而定;例如:某一子像素11所对应的彩膜基板上彩膜的颜色为红色,则将该子像素11称之为红色子像素R。
其中,如图1所示,给出一种示例性的显示基板的具体结构;该显示基板包括多列数据线Data、多行栅线Gate,栅线Gate和数据线Data交叉设置,并在交叉位置处限定出子像素11;其中,位于同一列的子像素11的颜色相同,沿行方向每相邻的三个子像素11构成一个像素,每个像素中的三个子像素11分别为红色子像素R、绿色子像素G、蓝色子像素B;位于同一行的各个子像素11连接同一条栅线Gate,位于同一列的各个子像素11连接同一条数据线Data(其中,位于同一列的红色子像素R所连接的数据线Data为Data11,位于同一列的绿色子像素G所连接的数据线Data12,位于同一列的蓝色子像素B所连接的数据线Data13);任一行栅线Gate的栅扫描信号由一级移位寄存器单元3(例如,图1中示意了6级移位寄存器单元3,即GOA1-GOA6,GOA1为第 一行栅线Gate提供栅扫描信号)所提供。
在周边区2设置有多个级联的移位寄存器单元3,具体的,移位寄存器单元3分为两部分分别设置在显示区1左右两边级联。如图1所示,以双边驱动为例,也即,每一条栅线Gate连接两个移位寄存器单元3。具体的,每条栅线Gate所连接的两个移位寄存器单元3可以分别连接在该栅线Gate的两端(例如:第一行栅线Gate的左右两端分别连接一个GOA1);当然,移位寄存器单元3也可以连接在该条栅线Gate的中间位置,或者其它任何位置。在本公开实施例中,由于采用双边驱动,相比于单边驱动,即一条栅线Gate只与一个移位寄存器单元3连接的实施例,能够使接收信号的整根信号线上各处的电压具有较好的均一性,而能够减缓由于信号线本身线阻而出现靠近移位寄存器单元3一端接收到的信号和远离移位寄存器单元3一端接收到的信号存在电压差的情况。其中,对于各个移位寄存器单元3采用级联的方式连接在一起;具体的,除第一级和最后一级移位寄存器单元3以外,第N级移位寄存器单元3信号输出端Gate(n)连接第N-1级移位寄存器单元3的第一控制端Gate(n+1),第N级移位寄存器单元3信号输出端Gate(n)连接第N+1级移位寄存器单元3的第二控制端Gate(n-1),其中N为大于1的整数,如图8所示。
具体的,如图1所示,位于显示区1两侧的是移位寄存器单元3呈阶梯状排布,且每个移位寄存器单元3呈矩形结构,这样就导致周边区2的占用面积比较大,从而不易形成窄边框的阵列基板。此外,由于每个移位寄存器单元3与显示区1的相对位置不同,且为了适应周边区2的形状,位于周边区2的多条导线(如接地线、信号线等)需要工作人员手动布线,从而导致阵列基板的制备过程复杂,从而增加制备成本。
第一方面,如图2至图8所示,本公开实施例提供一种阵列基板,具有显示区1和围设在显示区1***的周边区2,显示区1中设置有显示单元,显示区1包括曲线边缘21,周边区2中设置有多个移位寄存器单元3,其中,在与显示区1的曲线边缘21对应的位置,任意相邻的移位寄存器单元3相对于彼此旋转设置,以使移位寄存器单元3的第一边 缘31的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的外切线平行或与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致,第一边缘31为移位寄存器单元3靠近曲线边缘21的内边缘。
其中,也就是说显示区1的至少部分边缘为曲线边缘21,从而可以形成异形的显示区1;而至少部分移位寄存器单元3设置在曲线边缘21的***。
为了减少周边区2的宽度,本实施例中将位于曲线边缘21***的任意相邻的移位寄存器单元3相对于彼此旋转设置,即位于曲线边缘21***的移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31基于曲线边缘21的曲率而设置。具体的,每个移位寄存器单元3靠近曲线边缘21的内边缘为该移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31,即移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31为该移位寄存器单元3最靠近显示区1的边缘。
位于曲线边缘21***的移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31基于曲线边缘21的曲率排布。移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的排布方式分为两种情况:
第一种情况,移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的外切线平行。其中,也就是说移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31为直线,如图3(其中图3为图2中虚线框部分的局部放大图)和图4所示。
第二种情况,移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致。其中,也就是说移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31为曲线,且该曲线与其对应的部分曲线边缘21的曲率接近或者相同,如图5和图6所示。
如图2所示,本公开实施例的阵列基板中,在与显示区1的曲线边缘21对应的位置,移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的外切线平行或与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致。与如图1所示的阵列基板中的周边区2相比,图2中所示的移位寄存器单元3的分布与显示区1的曲线边缘21更贴合,从而使得图2中阵列基板的周边区2更窄,进而能够形成窄边框的显示面板。
此外,如图2所示,由于本公开实施例的阵列基板中的各个移位寄 存器单元3与显示区1的边缘的相对位置相近或者相同,从而可基于曲线边缘21的曲率对位于周边区2的导线(如接地线GND、公共电压线Vcom等)进行设置,以及可通过同一布线公式或者程序对所有移位寄存器单元3的导线进行布设,从而大大简化阵列基板的制备的过程,大大减小阵列基板的制备成本,增加阵列基板的制备效率。
在一些实施例中,如图5和图6所示,曲线边缘21包括多个曲线段22,每个移位寄存器单元3对应一个曲线段22,每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的延伸方向与对应的曲线段22的延伸方向一致。
其中,也就是说移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31为曲线。由于曲线边缘21的不同部分可以具有不同的曲率,因此,曲线边缘21的不同位置对应的延伸方向也可不同。而每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31只需与其对应位置的那部分曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致即可达到减小周边区2面积的效果,因此,本公开实施例中,将曲线边缘21与移位寄存器单元3对应的部分分为多个曲线段22,且每个移位寄存器单元3对应一个曲线段22,这样只需要每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的延伸方向与对应的曲线段22的延伸方向一致即可达到减小周边区2面积的效果。
当每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31的延伸方向与对应的曲线段22的延伸方向一致,能够使得每个移位寄存器单元3的分布与显示区1的曲线边缘21进一步贴合,从而使得周边区2更窄,进而能够形成更窄边框的显示面板。
在一些实施例中,如图3和图4所示,曲线边缘21包括多个切线点23,切线点23与移位寄存器单元3一一对应,每个切线点23为曲线边缘21到对应移位寄存器单元3的距离最小的点,每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31平行于曲线边缘21在对应切线点23的切线。
其中,也就是说移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31为直线。由于曲线边缘21的不同部分可以具有不同的曲率,因此,曲线边缘21的不同位置对应的外切线的方向也可不同。而每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31只需与其较近位置的外切线平行即可达到减小周边区2面积的效果, 因此,本公开实施例中,将在曲线边缘21选定多个切线点23,且每个切线点23分别为曲线边缘21距离其对应的移位寄存器单元3最近的点,这样只需要每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31与对应的切线点23出的切线平行即可达到减小周边区2面积的效果。
当每个移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31平行于曲线边缘21在对应切线点23的切线,能够使得每个移位寄存器单元3的分布与显示区1的曲线边缘21进一步贴合,从而使得周边区2更窄,进而能够形成更窄边框的显示面板。
在一些实施例中,如图3和图5所示,每个移位寄存器单元3还包括与第一边缘31相对的第二边缘32,第二边缘32与曲线边缘21的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的外切线平行。
其中,移位寄存器单元3的边缘为该移位寄存器单元3远离显示区1的边缘,即第二边缘32为移位寄存器单元3最靠近周边区2的外边缘的边缘,因此第二边缘32的形状也是决定周边区2面积大小的重要因素。
如图3和图5所示,本公开实施例中,第二边缘32与曲线边缘21的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的外切线平行,也即当第一边缘31与曲线边缘21的外切线平行时,第二边缘32与第一边缘31平行。
需要说明的是,当第二边缘32与第一边缘31平行时,移位寄存器单元3还具有将第二边缘32与第一边缘31连接的两个第三边缘,第三边缘可与第一边缘31垂直使得移位寄存器单元3为矩形,如图3所示;第三边缘也可不与第一边缘31垂直,使得移位寄存器单元3为梯形或者是其他适合的形状。
当第二边缘32与曲线边缘21的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的外切线平行,能够使得每个移位寄存器单元3的分布与显示区1的曲线边缘21进一步贴合,从而使得周边区2更窄,进而能够形成更窄边框的显示面板。
在一些实施例中,如图4和图6所示,每个移位寄存器单元3还包括与第一边缘31相对的第二边缘32,第二边缘32与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致。
本公开实施例中,第二边缘32与曲线边缘21的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致,也即当第一边缘31与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致时,第二边缘32与第一边缘31的延伸方向一致,如图6所示。
当第二边缘32与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致,能够使得每个移位寄存器单元3的分布与显示区1的曲线边缘21进一步贴合,从而使得周边区2更窄,进而能够形成更窄边框的显示面板。
在一些实施例中,曲线边缘21的形状为圆弧状、椭圆弧状中的任意一种。需要说明的是,曲线边缘21的形状也可以是实际显示面板中所需要的不规则弧状,此处不再一一列举。
在一些实施例中,多个移位寄存器单元3的中心连线的延伸方向与曲线边缘21的延伸方向一致。
其中,也就是说对于多个移位寄存器单元3而言,其排布趋势与曲线边缘21的延伸方向的趋势一致,这样能够使得多个移位寄存器单元3的分布与显示区1的曲线边缘21进一步贴合,从而使得周边区2更窄,进而能够形成更窄边框的显示面板。
在一些实施例中,显示单元包括多个阵列排布的子像素11,每行子像素11连接一条栅线Gate,每条栅线Gate连接至少一个移位寄存器单元3的输出端Gate(n)。
如图2所示,在显示区1中设置有多个呈阵列排布的子像素11,每行子像素11连接一条栅线Gate,每列子像素11连接一条数据线Data。其中,多个子像素11可以包括三种不同颜色的子像素11;例如包括红色子像素R、绿色子像素G、蓝色子像素B。
每个子像素11中均至少包括像素电路;如图8所示,给出一种示例性的像素电路,其包括:第十二晶体管T12、第十三晶体管T13、第十四晶体管T14、第十五晶体管T15、第十六晶体管T16、第十七晶体管T17、第十八晶体管T18、第一电容C1,以及发光器件D;其中,第十二晶体管T12的第一极连接初始电压信号端Vint,第十二晶体管T12的第二极连接第一电容C1的第二端、第十三晶体管T13的第一极和第十四晶体管T14的控制极,第十二晶体管T12的控制极连接复位信号端 Reset;第十三晶体管T13的第二极连接第十四晶体管T14的第二极和第十七晶体管T17的第一极,第十三晶体管T13的控制极连接栅线Gate;第十四晶体管T14的第一极连接第一电源电压端VDD;第十五晶体管T15的第一极连接数据线Data,第十五晶体管T15的第二极连接第十六晶体管T16的第二极、第十八晶体管T18的第二极和第一电容C1的第一极;第十五晶体管T15的控制极连接栅线Gate;第十六晶体管T16的第一极连接基准电压信号端Vref,第十六晶体管T16的控制极连接发光控制线EM;第十七晶体管T17的第二极连接发光器件D的第一极,第十七晶体管T17的控制极连接发光控制线EM;第十八晶体管T18的第一极连接基准电压信号端Vref,第十八晶体管T18的控制极连接复位信号端Reset,发光器件的第二极连接第二电源电压端VSS。
其中,发光器件D可以是电流型发光二极管,进一步地,可以为电流型无机发光二极管,如微型发光二极管(Micro Light Emitting Diode,Micro LED)或者迷你发光二极管(Mini Light Emitting Diode,Mini LED),当然,在公开实施例中的发光器件D还可以是有机电致发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)。发光器件D的第一极和第二极中的一者为阳极,另一者为阴极。
在一些实施例中,显示区1中还设置有黑矩阵,黑矩阵位于显示单元的***,以形成显示区1的曲线边缘21。
其中,由于各个子像素11的形状为矩形,且各个子像素11呈阵列排布,因此显示单元的边缘不能形成曲线边缘21,则需要在显示区1靠近曲线边缘21设置黑矩阵,以形成显示区1的曲线边缘21,也就是说位于显示区1中的黑矩阵的至少部分边缘与显示区1的曲线边缘21重合。
需要说明的是,可也通过显示区1其中的其他结构形成显示区1的曲线边缘21,如显示区1的连接线等。
在一些实施例中,多个移位寄存器单元3在周边区2间隔排布,且多个移位寄存器单元3级联。
具体的,除第一级和最后一级移位寄存器单元3以外,第N级移位 寄存器单元3信号输出端Gate(n)连接第N-1级移位寄存器单元3的第一控制端Gate(n+1),第N级移位寄存器单元3信号输出端Gate(n)连接第N+1级移位寄存器单元3的第二控制端Gate(n-1),其中N为大于1的整数。
在一些实施例中,显示基板为双边驱动型显示基板,也即,一行子像素11由两个移位寄存器单元3进行驱动,相应的,一行子像素11对应两个移位寄存器单元3。具体的,以一行子像素11为例,该行子像素11连接一条栅线Gate,两个移位寄存器单元3的信号输出端Gate(n)分别连接在该栅线Gate的两端,两个移位寄存器的信号输出端Gate(n)同样分别连接在该栅线Gate的两端,也即,第一位寄存器与第二寄存器一一对应设置。这样一来,若位于栅线Gate两端的移位寄存器中的一者损坏,则可以通过另一者为该栅线Gate提供栅扫描信号。当然,在本公开实施例中两个移位寄存器单元3也可以位于显示基板的中间区域,例如:第一位移寄存器单元位于两列子像素11之间,且驱动同一行的栅线Gate的两个移位寄存器单元3位于不同列的子像素11之间。在本公开实施例中并不对移位寄存器单元3的位置做任何限定。
在一些实施例中,如图3所示,每个移位寄存器单元3包括:级联线33,与本级移位寄存器单元3的输出端Gate(n)以及上一级移位寄存器单元3的第一控制端Gate(n+1)连接,级联线33沿本级移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31分布。
其中,也就是说级联线33将第N级移位寄存器单元3信号输出端Gate(n)与第N-1级移位寄存器单元3的第一控制端Gate(n+1)连接。级联线33沿本级移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31分布,相当于移位寄存器单元3的级联线33与对应曲线边缘21的部分的外切线平行或与对应曲线边缘21的部分的延伸方向一致,使得级联线33用于限定该移位寄存器单元3的第一边缘31。
需要说明的是,每个移位寄存器单元3还包括其他信号线,如时钟线等,其他信号线可设置在级联线33远离显示区1的一侧,优选的,其他信号线的延伸方向与级联线33的延伸方向一致。
在一些实施例中,如图7所示,每个移位寄存器单元3还包括:输入单元51、下拉单元52、下拉控制单元53、输出单元54、输出控制单元55。以下以第n级移位寄存器单元3进行说明。
其中,输入单元51,响应于输入端STV的信号将输入端STV的信号写入下拉节点PD、响应于第一控制端Gate(n+1)的信号将第一电压端VSD的信号写入上拉节点PU、以及响应于第二控制端Gate(n-1)的信号将第二电压端VDS的信号写入上拉节点PU。
输出控制单元55,响应于第一时钟端CLKB的信号将第三电压端VGL的信号写入输出端Gate(n)。
输出单元54,响应于输出控制单元55和上拉节点PU的控制将第二时钟端CLK的信号写入输出端Gate(n)。
下拉控制单元53,响应于第一时钟端CLKB的信号将第一时钟端CLKB的信号写入下拉控制节点PD-CN。
下拉单元52,响应于下拉控制节点PD-CN和上拉节点PU的控制将第三电压端VGL的信号写入下拉节点PD。
如图7所述,给出了一种示例性的移位寄存器单元3。具体的,输入单元51包括:第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2、第三晶体管T3,第一晶体管T1的栅极连接第二控制端Gate(n-1),第一晶体管T1的第一极连接第二电压端VDS,第一晶体管T1的第二极连接上拉节点PU,第二晶体管T2的栅极和第一极连接输入端STV,第二晶体管T2的第二极连接下拉节点PD,第三晶体管T3的栅极连接第一控制端Gate(n+1),第三晶体管T3的第一极连接上拉节点PU,第三晶体管T3的第二极连接第一电压端VSD。
输出控制单元55包括:第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5,第四晶体管T4的栅极连接下拉节点PD,第四晶体管T4的第一极连接输出端Gate(n),第四晶体管T4的第二极连接第三电压端VGL,第五晶体管T5的栅极连接第一时钟端CLKB,第五晶体管T5的第一极连接输出端Gate(n),第五晶体管T5的第二极连接第三电压端VGL。
输出单元54包括:第六晶体管T6和存储电容C,第六晶体管T6 的栅极连接上拉节点PU,第六晶体管T6的第一极连接第二时钟端CLK,第六晶体管T6的第二极连接输出端Gate(n),存储电容C的第一极连接上拉节点PU,存储电容C的第二极连接输出端Gate(n)。
下拉控制单元53包括:第七晶体管T7和第八晶体管T8,第七晶体管T7的栅极和第一极连接第一时钟端CLKB,第七晶体管T7的第二极连接下拉控制节点PD-CN,第八晶体管T8的栅极连接下拉控制节点PD-CN,第八晶体管T8的第一极连接第一时钟端CLKB,第八晶体管T8的第二极连接下拉节点PD。

需要说明的是,本公开实施例中的所采用的晶体管可以为薄膜晶体管或场效应管或其他特性的相同器件,由于采用的晶体管的源极和漏极是对称的,所以其源极、漏极是没有区别的。在本公开实施例中,为区分晶体管的源极和漏极,将其中一极称为第一极,另一极称为第二极,栅极称为控制极。此外按照晶体管的特性区分可以将晶体管分为N型和P型,当采用P型晶体管时,第一极为P型晶体管的源极,第二极为P型晶体管的漏极,栅极输入低电平时,源漏极导通;当采用N型晶体管时,第一极为N型晶体管的源极,第二极为N型晶体管的漏极,栅极输入高电平时,源漏极导通。其中,下述的像素电路和第一数据选择器中的晶体管均是以N型晶体管为例进行说明的,可以想到的是采用P型晶体管实现是本领域技术人员可以在没有付出创造性劳动前提下想到的,因此也是在本公开实施例的保护范围内的;下述的第一极为寄存器中的晶体管均是以P型晶体管为例进行说明的,可以想到的是采用N型晶体 管实现是本领域技术人员可以在没有付出创造性劳动前提下想到的,因此也是在本公开实施例的保护范围内的。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例的阵列基板还包括位于周边区2的集成芯片6和柔性线路板7,分别于显示单元连接,用于给显示单元提供信号。
第二方面,本公开实施例提供一种显示面板,包括上述的阵列基板。
具体的,该显示面板可为液晶显示面板、有机发光二极管(OLED)显示面板、电子纸、手机、平板电脑、电视机、显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
应当说明的是,在本文中,诸如第一和第二等之类的关系术语仅仅用来将一个实体或者操作与另一个实体或操作区分开来,而不一定要求或者暗示这些实体或操作之间存在任何这种实际的关系或者顺序。而且,术语“包括”、“包含”或者其任何其他变体意在涵盖非排他性的包含,从而使得包括一系列要素的过程、方法、物品或者设备不仅包括那些要素,而且还包括没有明确列出的其他要素,或者是还包括为这种过程、方法、物品或者设备所固有的要素。在没有更多限制的情况下,由语句“包括一个……”限定的要素,并不排除在包括要素的过程、方法、物品或者设备中还存在另外的相同要素。
